Think Adams will go to a big club certainly deserves it
Chelsea have started the clearing up - they've fired the manager.
I think he went a bit sulky when he didn't get the big move in January and his form took a dip as a result. But he's turned that around recently with some big performances that sadly weren't enough.
However, for that reason I'm not sure a really big move would suit him - I think he needs a second tier (of the prem, not second tier as in Championship) club like Spurs, Villa, Everton, etc. where he'd be an almost dead cert to play most weeks. I don't think he'd adjust well to being a squad player at one of the big four.
He'd get a start at Reading, and we'll be a prem side again in a week's time .......
Who the hell are Chelsea going to get in as manager now? Ancelotti is one of the very best managers in the world.
I'll do it, won't win a thing but I'll be inexpensive - GBP 1 million will suffice.

really ? that's ridiculous after winning the title in his first year.
chelsea really do have delusions of grandeur.
excellent suggestion about parker by the way. he'd be a big success at the villa.
Is the unknown adulterous stagger up for sale???
Not that I really give a **** about over paid 'Wendy Ball'.
Charlie Adams to Newcastle?
Then:
Think Adams will go to a big club certainly deserves it
So not Newcastle then....
Who the hell are Chelsea going to get in as manager now? Ancelotti is one of the very best managers in the world.
The Porto manager, André Villas Boas, has been named early favourite to replace Ancelotti by bookmakers. Guus Hiddink, who took temporary charge of the club in 2009, has been made second favourite while José Mourinho is available at 4/1 along with the Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp.
He'd get a start at Reading, and we'll be a prem side again in a week's time .......
Hope so
Cyril the Swan vs Kingsley should be fun at the play off finals though.
Cyril the Swan vs Kingsley should be fun at the play off finals though.
they've got history iirc, haven't they?
Cyril certainly does, and Kingsley's definitely had a red card...for...I shit you not...confusing the referee. He couldn't tell the difference between a footballer and a great big cuddly lion
Not sure of mutual history though...
I remember that. It was the referee's assistant actually, who couldn't tell from a distance of 60 yards whether the person playing their centre forward onside was our left back or a SIX FOOT TALL GIANT LION IN A BLUE AND WHITE SHIRT.
He got some stick that day.......

'I can see where the referee was getting confused,' Reading boss Steve Coppell conceded. 'He [Kingsley] does look like so many of my players.'
SSC = legend
It was the referee's assistant actually
I stand corrected...and indeed, you're right - it was my mate who's a Royals fan who was telling me about it. I recall now. I hope they make it up. They're a nice club. Always enjoy seeing games there.
EDIT: excellent photo that.
Charlie Adams to Newcastle?
Don't be so stupid.
Oh sorry, you were being deliberately obtuse.
Weren't you?
Adams will probbly go to Liverpool. Newcastle can have Poulsen off us, and maybe Konchesky, and we'll take Enrique and Tiote.
WhaT? It's not like you're going to win owt anyway; you always say you will but you never do. The most deluded club in English football.
Happy to see Wigan stay up, but it makes the ZOG less of a cert to leave. Very good player - would roll the red carpet out for him at Goodison.
If anyone wants to pay big money for the English midfield teenage sensation that is Jack Rodwell then we'll take yer arm off. He's had a really static season and hasn't developed at all. Chance he still could be great, but a greater chance that he'll be the next Jermaine Jenas.
He's had a really static season and hasn't developed at all.
That's because he's at a crap two-bit also-ran club forever in the shadow of greatness.
He needs to come to a big club..
just down the M62
No, just across Stanley Park actually so shut up.
For the plastic scousers in the house. It's Charlie Adam, not 'Adams'.
Whatever, girlfriend!
fred, you'll get a ban and this thread closed if you post pics of superinjuncted lotharios
The most deluded club in English Football?
Man City - Still not going to eclipse Utd (from a Toon Fan)
No, it's Newcastle. FA Cup holders Citeh have actually won something in living memory. Youse jolly well have not.
Watch how your lot spend the Carroll money on more flops. You'll waste every penny and probbly finish even lower than you did this year. 3-0 up against West Brom still can't win? Nearly as bad as Arsenal....
Aren't there enough London teams for you to 'support?'
If there is one thing worse than an armchair Man U fan, it's an armchair Liverpool supporter.
Just saying like.
Oh shut up. No big club could survive in today's game on gate receipts alone. How much do they make from merchandising and TV money? Hmm? Loads, is what.
Gate receipts makes up a relatively small fraction of a club's total income. So, clubs rely on 'armchair' fayns like me to supplement their income.
So shut up.
I take it you support a club who's only income is from gate receipts then?
Elfins - So have you actually been to 'support' your team this season then? Just asking.
Anyone can buy a shirt mate, or pay for a sky subscription.
One of the clubs I support do rely entirely on gate receipts to keep going, with a little bit of local sponsorship on top.
The other team I have a season ticket for also relies heavily on gate receipts as a percentage of their income.
Oh, plus that, and the actual support from being at the ground, singing, chanting, and spending money at the ground also helps the club.
On your other point about Newcastle being the most deluded club in English football - if you actually spoke to some of the fans, you would find theat they are disillusioned with the way the club is run, but are far from deluded.
The odd idiot they interview on the telly would suggest otherwise mind.
Back to my original question - aren't there enough clubs in London for you to support?
Yawn...
How can you support more than one club ooh tyou can't be a proper football fayn if you support more than one club blah blah blah...
Yes you're a far, far better fayn than I am. Well done. give yourself a little trophy.
every single fan I have spoken to this season (me included) have all said that anything higher than 17th is above expectation this season. how is that deluded elfin?
you can have enrique and tiote, just give us another 35 million.
Classic defence of a beaten man.
Oh, and Warton - it's easy for some to believe what they read in the papers, when they're a glory supporter and never actually go to a match.
Elfins - you still didn't answer my question though.
I wonder why that is?
Maybe it's because your 'question' is one designed to provoke argument. I can't be bothered with it because I've dealt with it before, so I've said all I want to on the matter. Basically, all it's really about is that you want to in some way 'prove' yourself to be better than someone else. By denigrating that other person. Suggests that you are perhaps a bit insecure and need to be seen to be 'winning'. Classic sign of someone with low self-esteem and inadequacy issues....
But do you actually go and support your team?
I'm just interested to know why you don't support a London team, since you love the place so dearly.
Do you travel to every single away game?
Not this season, no. But last season, yes.
